Recently, pictures of the renewed Luke Skywalker Yavin Ceremony figure have surfaced on the internet:

It seems to be a decent figure with some nice articulation. But let's talk about something else. Notice Luke's weapon? That's a BlasTech DL-44, like Han Solo's (but probably not that modified). Well, Hasbro got it all wrong. Luke wasn't wearing a DL-44 at all during the ceremony at Yavin 4. Luke was wearing a Drearian Defender Sporting Blaster, just like the one Princess Leia used aboard Tantive IV.

Evidence 1:
Here are some promotional pictures of Luke using a Drearian Defender. Don't recognise the outfit? That's because Luke doesn't wear his yellow ceremonial jacket:

Evidence 2:
The movie, of course. Let's have a look at some screenshots. You can detect the Drearian because of its extended barrel.

This could confirm the Drearian Defender's status as a weapon of status and sometimes used as a ceremonial weapon.
